A Real Good Try Lyrics


Oh, I'm sorry
I'm sorry for the way that I've been acting
But you know it's hard to be
Everything that everyone wants me to beYeah, I'm working on it
Working hard on it
Giving it a real good tryBack in ninety three
I decided I could be most anything
Living wild and free
Strumming hard as I could on those guitar stringsYeah, I'm working on it
Working hard on it
Giving it a real good tryYeah, I'm working on it
Working real hard on it
So baby, don't worry your mindWhen I feel like giving up
It's so nice to have you by my side, baby
'Cause times, they do get rough
When it ain't enough, oh just to be satisfiedAnd I'm working on it, yeah
Giving it a real good try
Giving it a real good try, yeah'Cause times, they do get rough

When it ain't enough just to be satisfiedAnd I'm working on it
Oh yeah, giving it a real good try
So baby, don't worry your mind
Oh, give me just a little more time

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Josh Kelley is a singer-songwriter who was born and raised in Augusta, Georgia. He began his musical odyssey at the age of 11 with a guitar. He later formed a band with his younger brother, Charles, during his teenage years called Inside Blue. At 14, the band released a five-song CD that struck the attention of a major label and led him to meeting James Brown on more than a few occasions.

Arriving at the University of Mississippi in Oxford, Mississippi, he had initial aspirations of being an art major, while also being a very capable golfer and a member of Kappa Sigma Fraternity.

Kelley released his indie album Changing Faces in 2001, signing with Hollywood in 2002. Working with John Alagia as his producer, Kelley released For The Ride Home in 2003. He also made an appearance at the Bonnaroo Music Festival in 2003. The song "Everybody Wants You" was recommended to be written by a friend to not forget who he is, while "Amazing" was possibly his first critically acclaimed hit.

Josh Kelley's 2011 record, Georgia Clay, was his first Country album; his previous work was more pop. Speaking with Songfacts in a 2011 interview, Kelley explained that Gone Like That was the song that actually started his journey into Country music. He said: "I had written and presented it to my music publisher to pitch to other artists, but they liked my demo so much they encouraged me to cut it. It was the first song I wrote that gave me the confidence to pursue a career as a Country singer."

His musical guise can be recognized akin to Jack Johnson, John Mayer, or Ben Harper.

Kelley remains a supporter of Napster-like sharing peer to peer applications for independent artists who have a difficult time receiving an audience. In fact, Kelley was "found" after accidentally targeting Eric Clinger at Hollywood Records with private spam messages using the Napster program.
